Johnny Depp will make an uncredited cameo in the new 21 Jump Street flick, Entertainment Weekly reports.

The TV series, which ran from 1987-1990, made the dreamy Depp a star. Now, Channing Tatum, Dave Franco (James' bro) and Jonah Hill will star in the re-make.

Tatum will play Officer Tom Hanson (Depp's role on the TV show), who, just like in the series, goes undercover as a high school student to fight youth crime. No word on who Depp will play in the big-screen version.

Depp was just 24 when he started on the series. See a pic of him back then and find out what Depp told EW about the cameo after the jump.

A cameo from Depp has been speculated about for the better part of a year. In an interview last year, the superstar spoke to EW about the possibility.
